Can a Diesel Vehicle Keep the Air Conditioning Running While Idling?

Keeping a diesel vehicle idling with the air conditioning on for extended periods can lead to increased carbon buildup in the engine, affecting its performance. It is advisable to minimize idling with the air conditioning on. Below are some related points about idling: 1. Explanation one: Idling refers to the engine running without any load, only overcoming the frictional resistance of its internal components, without delivering any external power. The minimum stable engine speed under these conditions is called idle speed, which is one of the five basic operating conditions of an engine. 2. Explanation two: When adjusting the idle speed, the RPM should not fluctuate abruptly, as this can cause premature wear to the engine. If you rest in the car with the air conditioning on for long periods, especially in recirculation mode, the air quality inside the vehicle can become increasingly polluted, with harmful gases gradually accumulating, posing health risks and even endangering lives. Please exercise caution.
